I can’t believe how quickly this past week flew by! The week ended up being a little busier than we expected. We did go see a musical this week (I found a way to get discounted tickets!), Belle had orientation, Michael started his classes and I did some volunteer work. Mike and I skipped Outback this week in favor of Red Lobster. Not a good decision 
My cupcake this week was a Champagne Cupcake. The cake itself was drier than I typically like them but it did have a good flavor. The frosting though was to die for! Excellent taste with a very light, airy consistency. The frosting is definitely a keeper but I’m going to play around with the cake to find a way to make it a little moister.
This week is another crazy week. I have work functions two nights so we’re planning on quick and easy meals. Unfortunately we probably won’t be able to sit down together more than 2-3 times this week. Hard to believe that it’s going to get worse once school starts!
Here’s what we’ll be having this week:
Brats, corn, strawberry salad Hamburgers, cranberry relish, tomato & black bean salad Pulled pork sandwiches, homemade applesauce, Fend for yourself x3 Dinner OutDo you have any good dinner suggestions to share? Feel free to share a link to your menu in the comment section.
In case you missed it, here are some other posts I shared this week.
I’ll be linking this post up to I”m an Organizing Junkie
I had to have a peek at your Brats link as I had no idea what they were!
Have a great week x
Nope, we aren’t serving up snotting kids
For a long time it was hard to find brats in other areas but I am seeing their popularity trickle down. Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your week! The cupcakes look gorgeous.
I hope you have a great week as well! Thanks for stopping by and the kind words about my cupcakes
Fend for yourself. That’s what I’m talking about. I just started a link up and I hope you’ll stop by. http://www.five4fivemeals.com/main/2012/8/24/friday-five-link-up-aug-24-2012.html
I had to look up brats too!!! A lovely meal plan, makes me want to go back to America! Especially the reference to Outback steakhouse! Have a lovely week x
I only recently heard about cooking brats or sausages by soaking them in beer first. Sounds like a perfect match to me and is on my list for future meals.
What do you use in your pulled pork?
